Garageio Commands

The Garageio integration with Alexa gets smarter every day. Before you can link your Garageio to Alexa, you must first enable the Garageio skill (see Enabling the Garageio Skill). To open the Garageio skill, say:

“Alexa, launch Garageio”

Here is a mostly complete list of commands:

“Alexa, ask Garageio what the names of my doors are” – get the names of your doors

“Alexa, ask Garageio for help” – Get helpful information

“Alexa, tell Garageio to close my door” – Close an open door

“Alexa, tell Garageio to open my door” – Open a closed door (requires a Pin Code)

“Alexa, ask Garageio if my door is open” – Check if door(s) are open

What is Amazon Echo/Alexa?

Amazon Alexa is designed around your voice. Its far-field voice recognition hears you from across the room and lets you control your connected home devices without lifting a finger, Garageio included! It’s always on — just ask for information, music, news, weather, and more. Alexa begins working as soon as it detects the wake word (either “Alexa” or “Amazon”). Connecting Garageio to Amazon Alexa is quick and easy. Click the Setup button below to get started!
